Although during the first six months of 2015 Norwegian cinemas recorded 5.1 million admissions – 1.2% up from last year and the best result in five years – the local market share fell to 3.8%, the lowest for years (the exact number is unclear because these statistics were not digitised until 2001). In 2014, Norwegian productions controlled 24.4% of the market.
